26.04 buttery smooth on my HP Envy x360

  • Decided on a clean install this time and will be staying on LTS from now on. And I never force an upgrade or installation too soon (to avoid the headaches everyone keeps posting on this subreddit with every new release), which is why I'm always late to the party.
  • installation was a lot faster than last time
  • still dual-booting with Windows (for firmware updates and the odd "we need Windows" exams)
  • Performance / speed has improved a lot since 25.10.
  • Went back to my beloved Evince because I need bookmarks!
  • Snap Firefox is usable this time around (it's been a while since I tested it out, I usually remove it and use the tarball build.)
  • the new Resources looks good too
  • zero hardware compatibility issues. I did have some years ago which required some startup scripts and other workarounds, but don't need any of those anymore.
  • my gratitude to the team for another reliable release. 🧡
